My main playlist is 383 hours, 4 minutes long.

[–] ekortelainen@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That's a long playlist! I feel like my 216 is just rookie numbers now. It's great to have a long playlist that only contains music that you like. You always have something to listen to.

Share your playlist, I need more inspiration for my 950 playlist

[–] Leach_@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I have one with 221h, but havent listened to it in ages, I now preferr sectioned off playlists for more specific situations

[–] thatcarolguy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yep, I have a playlist that is over 3 weeks long.

Also, I'm a simple man. I see Nickelback, I upvote.

I don't use playlists. I don't want a bunch of random songs being cycled through and can't understand the appeal, I listen to a single artist at a time. If I were to take all the songs I like and multiply by an average length though I'd get maybe 300 hours so not much more than that! It's hard to find the time to both find and then listen to new music, there's so much out there.

[–] ekortelainen@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I do that too, but I want all good songs that I've heard to be somewhere, where I can easily listen to them. Like when I hear a song in the radio that I like, I may want to listen to it again in the future, so I put it in the playlist.

1721h local library, keeps growing almost every week when new stuff that's good comes out.

[–] ekortelainen@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

And I thought my 216 hours was large.

If only there was so much good stuff in the genre(s) I listen to...

[–] AngusPicanha@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Anybody can make a playlist filled with random bullshit as long as they want

[–] ekortelainen@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I can tell you that there are absolutely zero random songs on that playlist. I know every single one of them.

[–] 0dioPower@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I just listen to records, like in the old times. Never create a playlist, never will

[–] ekortelainen@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I wish I could too. It's just too expensive for me right now. I have fairly versatile taste in music, I'd have to break the bank to buy all those records and the record player. Maybe someday.

[–] 0dioPower@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I forgot to say, I'm also old. I bought many records "before it was cool". I also listen to streaming service ofc, but in the same way, pick one album and press play.

[–] RB181@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I'm 25 years old and I also listen to and collect albums (well, CDs mostly), rather than playlists. Make of that what you will.

[–] ekortelainen@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I also do that, but when I hear a song that I like, I want to save it for later listening. That's what the playlist is for, kind of like a mass storage for my music.

Finally a worthy opponent (mine is over 200)
